Positive Effects of Crop Diversity on Productivity Driven by Changes in Soil Microbial Composition
Intensive agriculture has major negative impacts on ecosystem diversity and functioning, including that of soils. The associated reduction of soil biodiversity and essential soil functions, such as nutrient cycling, can restrict plant growth and crop yield. By increasing plant diversity in agricultu...
